About Ace Hardware
Hillside houses generate a steady stream of small errands, and the streets behind Peachland climb steeply enough that nobody wants to lose an afternoon to Kelowna over a box of screws. Ace Hardware sits down on the waterfront at 5836 Beach Ave, within walking distance of most of the flats and a short run down the hill from the upper streets.
Hardware stores in small towns tend to carry a wide, shallow range rather than a deep one. Fasteners sold by the piece, plumbing and electrical fittings, paint and stain, hand tools, cleaning supplies and garden goods that come and go with the weather all sit near the front of the trade, and many counters also cut keys or handle small repairs. What any given shop stocks in depth depends on the homes around it, so a store surrounded by older lakeside houses and steep lots often leans toward drainage, deck hardware and anything to do with water.
If you are coming down from Princeton Avenue or in from Trepanier for one specific part, a quick phone call to confirm it is on the shelf saves the trip twice over. It is also worth asking whether an item can be brought in on order, since something that arrives in a few days usually beats the drive around the lake and back. One local caution: parking along Beach Avenue tightens considerably on summer weekends, when day trippers fill the waterfront, so an early errand is a far easier errand.
